Valerie Ann Knies – Jesus, Joy Of Man's Desiring lyrics
"Jesus, Joy of Man's Desiring"
Jesus, joy of man's desiring
Holy wisdom, love most bright.
Drawn by Thee, our souls aspiring,
Soar to uncreated light.
Word of God, our flesh that fashioned,
With the fire of life impassioned,
Striving still to truth unknown,
Soaring, dying ‘round Thy throne!
Through the way where hope is guiding
Hark what peaceful music brings!
There the flock in thee confiding,
Drink of joy from deathless springs.
Theirs is Beauty’s fairest pleasure.
Theirs is Wisdom's holiest treasure.
Thou dost ever lead Thine own
In the love of joys unknown
Jesus, joy of man's desiring
Holy wisdom, love most bright.
Drawn by Thee, our souls aspiring,
Soar to uncreated light.
Word of God, our flesh that fashioned,
With the fire of life impassioned,
Striving still to truth unknown,
Soaring, dying ‘round Thy throne!
Through the way where hope is guiding
Hark what peaceful music brings!
There the flock in thee confiding,
Drink of joy from deathless springs.
Theirs is Beauty’s fairest pleasure.
Theirs is Wisdom's holiest treasure.
Thou dost ever lead Thine own
In the love of joys unknown
